The terror. The scares. The sense of community. Everyone celebrates it in their own way, and that makes it even more special: the absence of a standard way to celebrate makes it more genuine and authentic. More interesting. <strong>And for many, celebrating Halloween means staying at home with their headphones on, controller in hand, and playing as many horror games as possible<\/strong>.

Priced at \u20ac24.99, <a href=\"https:\/\/store.playstation.com\/en-us\/product\/UP3590-CUSA32304_00-0553340182798423\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" title=\"\">it is now also available on Sony&#8217;s console<\/a>. However, you might have already enjoyed this game before. Dusk was originally released on PC in December 2018 after spending nearly a year in Early Access, and on Nintendo Switch in October 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re not familiar with it, Dusk is a retro first-person shooter developed by David Szymanski, the creator of games like Chop Goblins and <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/the-best-games-with-submarines-or-under-the-sea-you-can-play\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Iron Lung<\/a>. <strong>Set in the fictional rural town of Dusk, Pennsylvania, players must navigate through cultists, demons, and the possessed to prevent the rise of an ancient entity that could potentially end humanity<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed-Youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"DUSK - LAUNCH TRAILER\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LbqNRDPd5_k?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Heavily inspired by Doom and Half-Life in terms of gameplay, Dusk aesthetically aims to replicate the visual style of Quake, with a low polygon count<\/strong>. Similarly, each of its episodes draws inspiration from different references. While the first episode draws more from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Redneck Rampage, the second episode is clearly inspired by S.T.A.L.K.E.R., creating its own unique approach in the third episode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If you haven&#8217;t played Dusk yet, or if you want to replay it on your PlayStation 4 for Halloween, there&#8217;s no better opportunity<\/strong>. And if not, you can always wait until December when it will receive a major update on PC, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=80ZFMzXGo-k\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" title=\"\">adding completely optional HD textures<\/a>. However, these textures somewhat take away the Halloween charm of the original version with its crispy polygons.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-program__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__img\" alt=\"Dusk\" src=\"https:\/\/images.sftcdn.net\/images\/t_app-icon-s\/p\/c0841b01-f87b-460d-9edf-f017f320f67e\/555232283\/dusk-555232283.png\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-title\">\r\n        <span class=\"sc-card-program__title\">Dusk<\/span>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-program__button sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/dusk.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DOWNLOAD<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-rating\">\r\n        <svg class=\"rating-score__content\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.1\" x=\"0\" y=\"0\" viewbox=\"0 0 50 50\" enable-background=\"new 0 0 50 50\" xml:space=\"preserve\"><path class=\"rating-score__background rating-score--good\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><path class=\"rating-score__value rating-score__value--0\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><text class=\"rating-score__number\" content=\"\" text-anchor=\"middle\" transform=\"matrix(1 0 0 1 25 31.0837)\" data-auto=\"app-user-score\"><\/text><\/svg>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <span class=\"sc-card-program__description\"><\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__bigpic\" src=\"\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-program__link track-link sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/dusk.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you don&#8217;t know what to do for Halloween, the perfect retro FPS has arrived on PlayStation 4 to spend a whole day of incredible shots and scares<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9268,"featured_media":257934,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","wpcf-pageviews":2},"categories":[1018,1015],"tags":[5689,4581,5690,4474,1423,4582,5691],"usertag":[],"vertical":[],"content-category":[],"class_list":["post-257931","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-gaming","category-news","tag-chop-goblins","tag-david-szymanski","tag-dusk","tag-fps","tag-halloween","tag-iron-lung","tag-new-blood-interactive"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/257931","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9268"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=257931"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/257931\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":316789,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/257931\/revisions\/316789"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/257934"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=257931"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=257931"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=257931"},{"taxonomy":"usertag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/usertag?post=257931"},{"taxonomy":"vertical","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/vertical?post=257931"},{"taxonomy":"content-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/content-category?post=257931"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
